Monday, March 14 is Pi day.  All of Mrs. Arn’s students (Grades 5-8) are allowed to wear a math shirt that day with blue jeans.  

We will have prizes for each class for memorizing as many digits of Pi as possible.

Pi = 3 . 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5 3 5 8 9 7 9 3 2 3 8 4 6 2 6 4 3 3 8 3 2 7 9 5 0 2 8 8 4 1 9 7 1 6 9 3 9 9 3 7 5 1 0 5 8 2 0 9 7 4 9 4 4 5 9 2 3 0 7 8 1 6 4 0 6 2 8 6 2 0 8 9 9 8 6 2 8 0 3 4 8 2 5 3 4 2 1 1 7 0 6 7 9…

Pi has been figured to 62.8 trillion digits without finding a pattern or an end.
